Northern Gundogs Braque Francais - CKC Reg. Northern Gundogs is providing North American's with amazing hunting companions from right here in Canada.

After looking for our girl a few years ago we saw there was a demand for this breed in North America but more importantly in Canada.

Each and every time we head afield this boy and I connect a little more. I didn't know what to expect out of this season and I'm certainly guilty of expecting way too much of my dogs but in this case Red has exceeded whatever I thought might be his first season.

We may have not taken a ton of upland birds this year but there's time for that. Our dogs are our family and it's important we connect on a level that is unmatched by any sort of training someone writes in the pages of a book.

We shouldn't play favorites but Red boy you make it really hard at times.

A few shots I managed to take plus I'm thankful for a few rare of me snapped from our trip last week. I'm already thinking of next year. Although there's plenty of hunting left this season I fear sharpies and huns will have to wait. We will see. 😉

This boy impressed me yesterday. Red certainly needs some tightening up in the blind but that will come. His ability to see downed birds in the water from his first retrieve to the last was 10 fold. If he had a few more I think he would have it figured out. It's tough when he doesn't see the bird fall but he listens really well to directions on the water so Ill take it!

Quick little evening hunt with .mike to shake the rust off and get Red out for the first time. We ran into a covey of ruffies and busted 2 roosters but the highlight was Red surprised us with a retrieve on a rooster that was all but lost. We didn't think it was hit but here Red comes with it in his mouth. Good boy Red!!

I take great pride in our accomplishments this weekend. Although the natural ability test is somewhat just that but it is very much a whole lot of training as well. First and foremost you need a cooperative dogs. Both of our runs I damn near lost my dogs but hey, after a whistle and patience they came back. There are no excuses, no pandering to your dogs style, no exceptions are made because you have a 6 month old vs a 1 year old mature dog. Just judges that see your dog for face value. A snapshot of your dog and what they are made to do. It's up to you as the handler to highlight those attributes. For us, we lost a point on the track with Bri. I can make all the excuses but it matters not. She did what she did and that's it. I did everything in my power to help her and at the end of the day she did fantastic in my mind. Oddly enough i thought the wheels were coming off for him on the track but holy hell he tracked like a bloodhound.
Moral of the story for anyone planning to run NA, put in the work and it will show but they still have a mind of their own. 😉
In the meantime read Tips and Tales by George Decosta! You wont regret it.

An exceptional weekend for the Northern Gundog pups. After a long weekend of volunteering for the test it was our turn yesterday to run our NA tests. We have been preparing for this since last fall for Red and all Spring for Bri. It was exhausting but I couldn't have asked for more from these pups.

Red absolutely killed it. Clean run on all accounts with 4s across the board for a top score of 112 and a prize 1!!

Bri had a little trouble on the track but other than that she did really well for a score of 102 and a prize 2.

I would not have expected to prize on both pups this weekend but we put in the time and I chalk up the lost point as an immature nose. Shes still only 7 months after all.

The judges were absolutely fantastic. The North Point team was fantastic. The whole event went off without a hitch and I'm excited to start building for hunting season.

The NGD pups had a really great mock test day today. We have a few things to tighten up before the test in 2 weeks but Red and Bri both did fantastic today.
Thanks to & for your help wrangling dogs for me.

Fun training day! Bri and Red are looking good for field work. Now to shape up track and get Bri in the water.

This handsome fellow turned 1 a couple days back.

The day he came into this world I'll never forget as I'm sure won't either. Racing back and forth to the city after endless complications only to be left alone in this world with no siblings, we're so Happy Tex is living his best life right here in Alberta riding around in combines and sleeping on pickup seats. What more can a dog ask for.

I look very much forward to seeing you this fall buddy!
